Made a reservation for Mother's Day brunch through Open Table a week in advance. Show up at our reserved time and they tell us they are not accepting Open Table reservations! Seriously! Why use the service then. Also, I'm not sure how they can justify $45 a pop for the low quality food they put out. We won't be back and definitely wouldn't recommend to friends.

Our server was just great. Any special request was granted without any fuss. The food was hot and very well cooked. There were three of us all with different dinner request. The food was delivered at the proper time. We were not waiting nor did we feel rushed.

We had not been here for awhile since the changes in hotel ownership so did not know what expect judging from some negative reviews on the internet. But we always liked the atrium atmosphere so we had Mothers Day brunch with my wife, my daughter (a mother as of 3 months) my son in law and new grandson.

We had a 10 am reservation and were seated right away. The service was good and for the most part the food was also good. The only two drawbacks were there was no fresh fruit and there could have been a better selection of desserts. Otherwise the selections were great from the carving station to the omelet bar to the seafood bar.

Best of all, there were no lines to get food which can be a problem on holidays.

We had reservations for Brunch on Easter Sunday at noon. We got there at 12:10 and had to wait in line for 20 minutes. We saw many tables opened, but not cleared off. I had my 87 year old aunt with me and she had to stand on a sloped walkway, not place to sit. When we went for the hot food at the buffet, most items were barely warm close to cold. Cold and hard Eggs Benidict was the worst offering! The poor choice of tongs to pick up food items caused people to struggle with holding on to items causing he line to back up. The display of Easter deserts was boring and cakes and cookies tasted like cardboard.

The Vineyards put on a buffet in the atrium of the hotel.Set up banquet style, with folding tables and chairs. We were there for the first seating @ 10 AM and things were pretty chaotic. The food was good for a buffet and their was a nice selection. The wait staff was totally lost as to what was going on. They all seemed to be willing, but didn't know the drill.

Vineyards Restaurant and Bar is overlooking the Tropical Atrium of the Crowne Plaza Hotel Concord/Walnut Creek, with our Koi Pond and an enclosed Air Conditioned high ceiling. One of East Bays most popular venues for Special Events, Weddings and Receptions.
